Registration open for those hot to Burien brat trot
Thu, 09/01/2011
Press release:
Registration is now open for the Burien Brat Trot 5K-a great day of German Style fun and exercise presented by the Tin Room in Olde Burien!
The 5K race starts at 1:00 p.m. in the heart of Olde Burien and widely circles Lake Burien.
The "Seize the Sausage" Family Race (about one mile) starts at Lake Burien Park at 1:40 p.m. Both events finish to cheering crowds right in the heart of Olde Burien where revelers can enjoy a day-long Oktoberfest style festival including brats, beer gardens, live entertainment and plenty of activities for kids! Costumes are encouraged!
The Brat Trot is a true community celebration- that brings out the fun in all of us--and it also raises critical funds for two local non-profits Safe Kids King County South and Highline Schools Foundation for Excellence. Safe Kids supports injury prevention through education and access by providing needy families with essentials such as car seats and cribs. The Highline Schools Foundation provides community resources to help all Highline Public Schools succeed by supporting classroom innovation, the arts, athletics, college scholarships and many more district programs and needs.
